Hi all,
I created a parallel job using Difference stage.The Input stage and the output stage i used is Dataset stage.When i run the job im not at all getting any colored line but in director log details itz showing the error as follows :

The file identified as '/home/diff_src.ds' is not an ORCHESTRATE Data Set descriptor.

Kindly help me to resolve this issue and explain me what is orchestrate data set descriptor.

Are u using the same configuration file in the job which create the DataSet and this job where u r getting this warning? The reason is if you create the dataset using some 4 particular nodes, then when reading the data from the dataset your configuration file should include all these 4 nodes.

The error tells that '/home/diff_src.ds' is not a DataSet. Make sure that its not a file - (if its a file use the Sequential File Stage).
How was diff_src.ds created?

DataSets are different from files. Go through the chapter on DataSets in the Parallel Job Developer's Guide for more information. Or search this forum, as this has been answered many times here.
